Michelangelo (1475 – 1564) A Florentine “Renaissance man” also known for
architecture (the dome of St. Peter’s Basilica), painting (The Last Judgment and the
Sistine Chapel ceiling), poetry, and military engineering. His sculpted masterpieces
include David, a Pietά, Bacchus, and a number of pieces for the tomb of Pope Julius
II (including Dying Slave and Moses). He preferred to work in Carraran marble.
Donatello (1836 – 1455). A Florentine sculptor who helped define Renaissance
sculpture as distinct from that of the Gothic period. He is known for St. Mark
and St. George in the Or San Michele [(OR SAHN mee-KAY-lay] (a Florentine
church), the bald Zuccone (which means “pumpkin-head,” though it depicts the
prophet Habbakuk), and the first equestrian statue to be cast since Roman times,
the Gattamelata in Padua. He is also known for mastering the low relief form of
schiacciato.
Gina Lorenzo Bernini (1598 – 1680) A Roman who, with the rarely asked-about
Francesco Borromini, defined the Baroque movement in sculpture. Bernini is
principally known for his freestanding works including David and The Ecstasy of
Selected Art for Submittal
Artists Summary (continued)
St. Theresa. Bernini’s David differs from that of Michelangelo in that the hero is
shown “ín motion,” having twisted his body to sling the rock. Bernini is also known
for his massive fountains in Rome including the Triton and the Fountain of the Four
Rivers. Lorenzo Ghiberti (1378 – 1455) A Florentine sculptor and goldsmith who
taught both Donatello and Filippo Brunelleschi. He is best known for two pairs of
bronze doors on the Florence Baptistery (associated with the Duomo, or Florentine
Cathedral). He produced a single, low-relief panel to win a 1401 competition
(defeating Brunelleschi) for the commission to design the 28 panels for the north
doors.
Cristoforo Stati (1556 – 1619) A lesser known Italian sculptor and restorer, Stati
worked on the restoration of marble works excavated from archaeological sites.
During his time in Florence, between 1604 and October 1607, he carved the fountain
with Samson and the Lion. This formed a pair with another group, by Giambologna
(Samson and a Philistine, 1565-70; London, V&A; base, Aranjuez, Pal. Real), which
has been identified with a work in the gardens of Aranjuez Palace in Spain. During
the same period he carved the group of Venus and Adonis (Bracciano, Pal. Com.
Stati’s figures show an essential naturalism, in contrast to the artificial symmetrical
compositions of the works of Giambologna.
Leonardo da Vinci (1452 – 1519) The archetypal “Renaissance Man,” Leonardo
da Vinci was one of the greatest scientific minds as well as one of the greatest visual
artists in history. His most famous paintings are The Last Supper and Mona Lisa. In
Milan, he worked on engineering projects and on the planning of an equestrian statue
to honor Gian Giacomo Trivulzio, the French military commander of Milan. He
completed the horse in clay, but it was destroyed by French soldiers. His drawings
and notes were subsequently used to replicate the famous horse sculpture. Da Vinci’s
use of color, light and anatomical drawings influenced how other artists drew and
sculpted.
